No, it wasn't. A flat 50% reduction doesn't actually address any issues and, depending on the planet, can make them worse. It also has no mechanism to continue culling despite the fact that populations will inevitably get past where they were. All of which overlooks that the answer to a perceived resource scarcity could involve just *creating* more resources with the Infinity Gauntlet, something Thanos seems to know that he can do.

No matter how you look at it, his mission was illogical.

The problem with that counter-argument is that "purpose in life" would be inherently meaningless, if everything was provided for you. Despite Thanos' need to wipe out half of all life, he did respect life's need for struggle and purpose. So even on the flip-side and providing all those needs would be illogical as well.
